Farm Connect


Originally meant as an MVP of one half of the has-needs exchange, it seems someone beat me to it! Sort of…

While the enterprising developer is working out an Uber Eats delivery model, but that’s never going to create enough value to support a driver community.

I feel we need to involve those who benefit directly from good food, or from helping others derive value from it. otherwise delivery is not sustainable.

Fortunately, the joy of sharing nature’s bounty is fulfilling and people like the farmer relationship, they just don’t know what’s available and where.

So, where has needs is bidirectional search and contract execution, one half of that would be the Has part. Farmers Have crops and this app will allow user to claim some quantity and be able to plan their day to include the pickup.

Farmers value the personal relationship too, so this MVP reflects solutions to the major pain points experienced by small farmers and partially solved by the app in the article.
